Abstract

The preliminary version of the Evidence-Based Surgery (EBS) web pages was first released by the College Library in December 1998. In just four weeks there were over 1,600 recorded 'hits'. These draft pages were made known only to those surgeons and trainees participating on the various surgical e-mail discussion forums such as the Association of Surgeons in Training Mailing Lists. The popularity of the draft EBS pages and the encouraging feedback has rendered the on-going updating of the EBS pages a worthwhile activity.

Wireless connectivity for health and sports monitoring: a review.

This is a review of health and sports monitoring research that uses or could benefit from wireless connectivity. New, enabling wireless connectivity standards are evaluated for their suitability, and an assessment of current exploitation of these technologies is summarised. An example of the application is given, highlighting the capabilities of a network of wireless sensors. Issues of timing and power consumption in a battery-powered system are addressed to highlight the benefits networking can provide, and a suggestion of how monitoring different biometric signals might allow one to gain additional information about an athlete or patient is made.
